UChicago EA Class of 2025

Oh no…! We thought EA would give better chances of admission, not worse… Bummer.

Our DS has his heart SET on UChicago, but now… :worried:

Oh wait! He did Early Decision. That’s different from Early Action, right? (I can’t keep track…)

@DramaMama2021 Yass! Our DS said the same thing; it was so much fun to write the essays, he was actually happy to do it (and he HATES writing. He’s a math guy!)

So… is anyone else worried that this year they’ll be accepting even fewer EA/ED students? Like, I’m thinking they’re gonna have to take something like a quarter to half as few students because of the pandemic and everyone deferring this year, which means fewer slots next year…

(BTW: what does “D21” mean…? Sorry, I looked and looked for a definition on the Abbreviation thread but couldn’t find it! Is it son/daughter + year of Graduation from HS? Age? :confused: )
